http: re-word http error message
When we report an http error code, we say something like: error: The requested URL reported failure: 403 Forbidden while accessing http://example.com/repo.git Everything between "error:" and "while" is written by curl, and the resulting sentence is hard to read (especially because there is no punctuation between curl's sentence and the remainder of ours). Instead, let's re-order this to give better flow: error: unable to access 'http://example.com/repo.git: The requested URL reported failure: 403 Forbidden This is still annoyingly long, but at least reads more clearly left to right.
